in full light conditions they'll take it fairly moist but in poor light
you need to cut back and say water once a week maybe on occassion if it
looks like the plant is stressing you do twice a week.
i will guess it is a 'ficus elstica' or something like that, what ever
best not to be tempted to plant it in your garden though.
